LE FIGARO.

- Jean Castex indicated that

“teleworking wherever possible is imperative”.

What does this mean legally for a company?

Anna MILLERET-GODET.

- Everything and nothing, that is the problem because we are in what is called flexible law.

Employers are stunned by multiple texts (protocol, circular, instruction…) to force them to resort to teleworking.

But none are really legally binding.

To read also:

"Teleworking does not make the employees happier nor the company more efficient"

You mean that none of these texts is really opposable to them in law?

I mean that they are not binding, that they are only recommendations which have nothing to do, for example, with an article of the labor code.

But that doesn't mean that I would advise my clients not to take it into account, on the contrary.

The employer must strike a balance, which can be complex in the absence of strict guidelines.
